If canoeing isn't for you, another way to
see the best of the Dordogne valley is by boat. There are several companies
that run Gabarres, the traditional vessel of the area. Trips are combined
with a locally produced lunch and visits to special sites along the river.
It is a glorious day out. The Gabarre de Bergerac is only 15 minutes away
on the Quai Salvette and is one of the more traditional vessels.
